Default QUESTION: Quince paste?

Has anyone used Quince Paste? I know I've seen it at gourmet markets
alongside the classy chesses for a cheese tray. We bought some and
tried it this weekend with our 5 cheese assortment. When it was fresh
from the fridge, the flavor was quitesweet and we couldn't find a
cheese that balanced it well. Dry Jack was about the best and I could
see maybe a strong, aged cheese like a reggiano or something paried
with it.

As it got to room temp, the sweetnedd mellowed some. We found then that
we liked it on a piece of flatbread with some soft saga bleu chesse, as
the strong flavor of the blue worked against the sweetness f the
quince.

But overall, we didn't see it as anything exciting or worth buying
again. Anyone have any great ways they have used quince spread that we
should try with the other half of the tub? Something that might wow me
a little?
